Benghazi Continued...

I dont agree with the claims of treason that are reported in this, but the other info is very interesting. The saga continues...

According to the Conservative Report and as reported on by Rush Limbaugh, when Obama disappeared for eight hours during the September 11, 2012 attack on the Benghazi consulate, Valerie Jarrett took charge and may actually have given the stand down order.

We know that an email was sent at 6:07 p.m. Washington time to the White House Situation Room stating that the al-Qaeda-linked group Ansar al-Sharia was taking credit for the attack.

Shortly after this Ansar al-Sharia email came in, and some time before the CIA Annex came under attack, the stand down order was given. It is presumed that Valerie Jarrett gave the stand down order in order to protect Obama from a Jimmy Carter-like military debacle in the event the rescue effort turned out to be a failure.

Keep in mind that a stand down order can only be authorized by the President of the United States. Neither the Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta, or the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Martin Dempsey (also present in the White House Situation Room), were authorized to give this stand down order.

As revealed in Congressional testimony by Gregory Hicks (the State Department’s deputy chief of mission in Libya), a stand down order was definitely given, exemplified by the debacle involving Lt. Colonel Gibson, who remains hidden by the Obama administration to this day.

Special Operations Command Africa commander Lt. Colonel Gibson put together a rescue team; but as they were about to board a C-130 from Tripoli to Benghazi, Gibson got a phone call from AFRICOM headquarters demanding that his team stand down.

Additionally, fighter jet groups based in Europe and on aircraft carriers, along with thousands of soldiers and special forces in nearby bases in Europe, were never dispatched. It appears a blanket stand down order was given to the entire European and Africa commands.

If Obama disappeared for eight hours and let an unelected, unqualified underling—Valerie Jarrett—give the stand down order and let Americans get slaughtered, that is treason. Or if Obama himself gave the stand down order, that is also treason.

Either way, treason was committed; and impeachment of Barack Obama must begin immediately.

What makes anyone think that Obama was qualified to make a "stand down order?" Just saying!

Meanwhile, a rodeo clown is being vilified for poking a bit of fun at the President. Not on the subject at hand, but is a sign of the times we are being forced to live in. Government minions laugh with smoking guns in hand of laws clearly broken and then are closeted, paid and promoted, while patriots are dying to protect them and us all. A justice department that meets out political justice as they see fit by proclamation. The Benghazi scandal is clearly the poster child for malfeasance at it's best and a President who is responsible for nothing.

Please believe me (Including NSA) I didn't vote for the dumb-ass in the first place or second. His race got him elected and gave him the opportunity to screw America because I have not heard one thing positive in his administrations.

What an idiot.

Can't forget that SECSTATE Clinton should also have had a voice in the slaughter.

As a DoD employee, I used to work with State Dept FSO or employees on a daily basis. Although most understood the ramifications of threats of and actual attacks against US diplomatic facilities - IMHO the State Dept barking dogs back in DC seemed to be required to paint a smiley face on any situations overseas.

Treason????????

You have Got to be kidding.

You have NO idea of ALL the facts. Just because it turned out badly does NOT mean treason was committed.

I realize that the right wants to discredit our President...I get that. But treason?

If this is treason, then why wasn't Bush Impeached for letting 9/11 happen? Because it's NOT treason.

Sheesh!
